Fab Vocab:
If you find yourself whiling away time in the exam hall trying to zero in on that precise word that would make your answer verily glitter, this might help.
Personal Libraries:
If Khenchi scares the crap out of you or you have misplaced your library card use these free sites to find your books instead:
gigapedia.org - You'll have to register and choose "Gigapedia" from the drop-list in the search bar when you're done.
truly-free.org - The lovely and generous Mr. Burgomeister who lets you steal from his collection. Donate if you can.
Stuff You're Ashamed to Ask About:
If you're the kind of student who knows everything there is to know about the Jacobean period except when exactly it happened - timelines may be just the thing you need. Am still on the lookout for lovely, interactive ones. Till then -
A timeline of English history: http://www.localhistories.org/timeline.html
A timeline of world literature: http://itc.gsw.edu/faculty/bdavis/WorldLitTimeline.htm
Citation Help:
If you're going to filch from critics you might as well cite them. Name-dropping is one of the most effective ways of sounding smarter than you really are and a good grasp of citation styles (MLA ftw!) will just be another ostrich plume in your helmet.
